In another move to grow South Australia’s exports and create jobs, the Marshall Liberal Government will resume sponsoring the major annual event G’Day USA.

“The State Liberal Government has a clear plan to drive an export-led transformation of the South Australian economy, with a focus on improving our trade relationships and supporting our exporters,” said Premier Marshall.

“SponsoringG’Day USAwill showcase our state and exporters to thousands of United States’ businesses and investors.

“The United States is South Australia’s second largest export market with over 400 local businesses already exporting their products and services into the US and we want to further strengthen this important trade relationship.

“At the same time, more than 180 companies from the United States have a presence in South Australia".

One of the Marshall Liberal Government’s key election commitments is to establish more trade offices worldwide to create jobs by boosting South Australia’s international trade.
